allow multiple slack webhooks per scheduled monitor or test run.
I have multiple slack teams, I'd like the ability to hook up a monitor org, or a test run to send to multiple slack webhook urls.
Not super important, and I suppose I could get around it by scheduling a duplicate, but that just felt wasteful of everyone's API's. :)

When migrating ReportFolders, either remove running user or let me map users between Sandboxes/environments
When migrating ReportFolders, either remove running user or let me map users between Sandboxes/environments
The SharedTo User doesn't exist in the target org causing my deployment to fail.

Differentiate XML and Code differences in the comparison
I would find it very useful if the comparison result highlighted if the difference was in the XML or the Code (or both) for each item. This would especially save time when there are a lot of differences.
7 votesThanks for the suggestion Celio.
We think this should be possible to do and are doing some background work into how to manage and display this. More details to come soon.
Thanks,

Specify tests to run on the test monitoring jobs
Some of my orgs have many tests, and I don't always want to run all of them on a daily basis. Being able to specify which tests are run daily would be great.

Exportable metadata reports for orgs
Being able to export a summary of an org's metadata state for reference, prior to a deployment or as part of our reporting, would be great.

Provide option to disable parallel apex testing in Scheduled Tests
Scheduled Test runs can fail due to UNABLETOLOCK_ROW errors. This is due to what amounts to a bug in SF: accessing public custom settings in tests which are run in parallel can cause deadlocks. Really, the tests ought to be isolated from each other, but they are not. See:
The workaround in SF is to disable parallel apex testing.
If Gearset could do that during the scheduled test run, it would prevent false test failures.
I guess I could change the option on the SF org, but sometimes parallel testing is useful, so I wouldn't want to…

"Changed on" date on source control side of comparison does not show
We have no way of knowing when the files were last changed on the source control side. Tried only with BitBucket though.
10 votesThat is something we should definitely show. We’ve added it to our investigation list to see if it can be added into the app.

Add ability to exclude specific files/folders of repo from a compare with source control
Currently, if you try to compare a repository to a Salesforce org, it will throw an error with only the ability to send a report to Gearset if the repository contains files that are not compatible (gulp files, package.json, etc. at the root of the repo or any folder that isn't corresponding to a Salesforce type of file).
My suggestion would be to add the ability for the user to exclude those files or folders from the compare and retry when it fails. This issue currently prevents us to use source control in the comparisons.

Send a link to the report in the notification
It'd be nice to have a link to the report included in the notification for any scheduled monitoring, test run or deployment/validation.
8 votesThanks for the suggestion.
When you run a deployment, the deployment success email contains the PDF of the deployment report, as well as a link to your deployment history to view the full information.
For the test/change monitoring emails, what sort of report would you like to see? Would you like to see the full information on tests run or just a summary of key stats?
We don’t currently provide the ability to export PDF reports for our change and test monitoring jobs in the same way as our deployments, but it’s something we’ve been thinking about putting in.

Provide the option to ignore whitespace differences in Apex
It would be great to have more control over the diff process - particularly to be able to ignore whitespace changes.
If I've made an actual function change to a class, and also auto-indented it, then it would be a lot easier to see the important change if I could hide the whitespace-only changes.
Having the ability to suppress whitespace-only changes on the list of changed objects would be really useful, too.
68 votesThanks for the suggestion.
We have plans to improve the way the diff viewer handles changes and whitespace in the future, though it’s not currently under development.
Thanks,

Add merge functionality to the diff tool
Extend the diff tool to allow the user to perform a merge, creating a new version of the component that contains some changes from the source version and some changes from the target version. This would be very useful in a team development scenario where multiple devs are working on features in individual dev sandboxes and then pushing completed features into an integration sandbox.
79 votesMerging differences between Apex classes and VisualForce pages is difficult to do automatically due to the understanding required by the developer. For differences between two orgs in other object types, Gearset helps you sidestep that with our granular comparison results.
